The Paper Room: Box inspired ...
http://thepaperroom.blogspot.com/2015/01/box-inspired.html
Saturday, January 10, 2015. After making those boxes for the chocolates over the holidays, I was inspired to make some containers for my alcohol inks. I'm been looking for a container the would fit my alcohol inks perfectly for some time now. I was going to get this tin container I saw at Emballage Tout but decided to see if I had something better at home . I did . paper :). Yup, I made a container . 4 to be exact . to store my alcohol inks. Guess what, my inks fit perfectly! I ended up making 3 more con...

The Paper Room: Maculine birthday card ...
http://thepaperroom.blogspot.com/2015/01/maculine-birthday-card.html
Saturday, January 24, 2015. Maculine birthday card . Even with all the stamps I have, I always find it a bit of a challenge to make a masculine card . especially, when I'm trying not to use any of the Penny Black Inc. or Stampscapes stamps. I opted to omit spraying the piece with pearlized water since it is suppose to be a masculine card. Hubbie thought it was a wise decision :). Here's the final result . I love how the 2 colours blend together. The mini blending tool makes blending so easy!

Sunday, November 23, 2014. Birthday card for mom . He re's a card I made for my mom's birthday. I decided to use one of the Asian style stamps the I bought a. While ago . Lanterns stamp by Impression Obsessions, Inc. Here's a close up of the lanterns. I don't know if you can see the stickles I added on the rope holding the lanterns up and on the 1st and 2nd lanterns . I find the stickles gives the card a bit of a shine and that extra something :). Yeah, I'm not an impulsive shopper ;). Anyway, I've accum...

Sunday, March 8, 2015. Whether it's using a box die or a score board, it's one of my favourite things to make . boxes! It was the same when I started Origami . I made so many boxes . various sizes, colours, shapes . square, triangle, hexagon, octagon :). I just love this stamp from the Wild Rose Studio stamp set "Birthday Circles". I have 2 other similar stamp sets . they're great for tags and as a seal on an envelope! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My Passion . Paper!

Sunday, June 29, 2014. Gelatos birthday card . Here's a birthday card I made for a friend's birthday earlier this month. She's the one that I made the card set for. She's one of the few people I know who goes out looking for the perfect card for someone. I always get unique handmade cards from her, so I wanted to make something really nice since I was on vacation and had the time. I had given a class last October and went a little crazy with samples. I love the way Gelatos look on dark cardstock! As I've...

The Paper Room: Boxes ...
http://thepaperroom.blogspot.com/2015/01/boxes.html
Sunday, January 4, 2015. For a few years now, hubbie and I buy Lindt chocolate and put them in handmade boxes as a little treat for the family during the holidays. I try to make different boxes from the previous year or at least decorate it differently. This year, I decided to make a box with a separation inside the box. I embossed the paper with snowflakes to go with the holiday theme :). I made dividers to separate the box in 4 sections . I put a ribbon and tag on the box . and all done! Here's the 2nd...

The Paper Room: February 2015
http://thepaperroom.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 15, 2015. Before the holidays, I manage to squeeze in a funshop at work. Initially, I wanted to try and do 2 funshops but only had time to do 1 . this was definitely not due to a lack of ideas :). Anyway, I decided to do a wine bottle tag and gift card holder . something I thought would be useful for most people and also different from making a card. I kept it simple as I wanted to ensure everyone had time to finish both items. Here's some close ups of the wine bottle tags. I actually pi...

Monday, December 29, 2014. Lilies birthday card . Here's a birthday card I made with the Lilies stamp set from Stacy Stamps using white embossing powder and Gelatos. I can't seem to stop making cards with Gelatos . I guess it didn't help that my 1st Funshop at work was making a card with Gelatos. I had to of course make some additional cards as samples for the funshop . as if I did not have enough :). Anyway, here's the birthday card I made for Mei Mei . Thursday, December 25, 2014.
